Sur la biométrie des mandibules et des dents humaines d’Ishango (LSA, République démocratique du Congo) by Rosine Orban, Patrick Semal, François Twiesselmann

“…Taking into account the reduction of teeth and maxillaries since the australopithecines until Homo sapiens sapiens, bivariate analyses have led to the following observations: the mandibles D and a tend to be located among the higher values of the modern variation; some of their measurements (a.o. those of the ascending ramus) are close to those from the fossils of the Upper Paleolithic of Europe, of Fish Hoek, and of Gamble Cave; the Ishango a mandible is more robust than the D mandible; its molars are larger, in relative terms, than the other teeth of the toothrow; the M2 from Ishango A and a are located within the variability of the Plio-Pleistocene fossils from Africa and of the Homo erectus; the large dimensions of the M1 dental germ locate it among the Australopithecines. …”

Evaluation and optimization of carbon emission for federal edge intelligence network by Peng ZHANG, Yong XIAO, Jiwei HU, Liang LIAO, Jianxin LYU, Zegang BAI

“…In recent years, the continuous evolution of communication technology has led to a significant increase in energy consumption.With the widespread application and deep deployment of artificial intelligence (AI) technology and algorithms in telecommunication networks, the network architecture and technological evolution of network intelligent will pose even more severe challenges to the energy efficiency and emission reduction of future 6G.Federated edge intelligence (FEI), based on edge computing and distributed federated machine learning, has been widely acknowledged as one of the key pathway for implementing network native intelligence.However, evaluating and optimizing the comprehensive carbon emissions of federated edge intelligence networks remains a significant challenge.To address this issue, a framework and a method for assessing the carbon emissions of federated edge intelligence networks were proposed.Subsequently, three carbon emission optimization schemes for FEI networks were presented, including dynamic energy trading (DET), dynamic task allocation (DTA), and dynamic energy trading and task allocation (DETA).Finally, by utilizing a simulation network built on real hardware and employing real-world carbon intensity datasets, FEI networks lifecycle carbon emission experiments were conducted.The experimental results demonstrate that all three optimization schemes significantly reduce the carbon emissions of FEI networks under different scenarios and constraints.This provides a basis for the sustainable development of next-generation intelligent communication networks and the realization of low-carbon 6G networks.…”

Protein Glycation in Diabetes as Determined by Mass Spectrometry by Annunziata Lapolla, Laura Molin, Pietro Traldi

“…Enzymatic degradation products of in vitro glycated HSA were studied in order to simulate the in vivo enzymatic digestion of glycated species by the immunological system leading to the highly reactive advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) peptides. Further studies led to the evaluation of glycated Apo A-I and glycated haemoglobin levels. …”
